Dr Zach Bush | The intelligent expression of Nature for a world hungry for Farmer’s Footprints
Zach Bush has been physically absent from the Australian landscape for nearly 3 years, last in the country just days before the world shut down. Charlie's long-awaited in-person interview first lined up all those years ago with Zach was recorded amid his tour with the Farmers Footprint Australia team. As is Zach's habit, many topics were covered; the expression of Nature through human consciousness, the impossibility of human existence, extinction as an opportunity for the renewal of mankind, and what exactly is the genius of Zach (bonus content available to our Patreon members.....). A conduit of universal wisdom, and the most compelling global and human health advocate of our time.
